FARMER PRODUCER ORGANISATIONS (FPOS) - AN AVENUE FOR FINANCING TO FARMERS
India has about 12.5 Crore farmer households of which over 85% are small and marginal farmers with land holdings of less than 2 hectares. The average size of land holding is 1.33 hectare/ farmer household. Due to this fragmentation and disorganization, farmers face constraints such as procuring inputs like seeds and fertilizers at reasonable prices, lack bargaining power in the market, realizing better value for their produce, access to technology, etc. As a result majority of the small producers are unable to realize optimal value from their farming operations and make economic progress. On the other hand, in case of non-farm sector activities, the problems relate more to the quality of the product and marketability. It is felt, by organising themselves collectively, producers can utilize scale to procure inputs at a lower price, and gain more selling power for their produce/product. Forming a producer organization can provide a strong platform to take up collective business activities, build capacity and provide linkages to markets.

INTEREST SUBVENTION SCHEME TO RBI SUPERVISORY ACTION FRAMEWORK AND PERFORMANCE OF COOPERATIVE BANKS
Abstract: The recent mega fraud of Punjab and Maharastra Bank has shaken the confidence in Urban Cooperative Banks (UCBs). For revival of these banks, constant monitoring of financial health of these banks by the RBI is a must for which Supervisory Action Framework (SAF) is an effective tool. Under SAF, monitoring of the financial health of UCBs is done through three trigger points namely, CRAR, Asset Quality and Profitability. This SAF is in existence since 2012. The present article studies of financial performance of UCBs since the introduction of SAF which reveals several concerns. While SAF seems to be an effective supervisory tool of the RBI, its benefits are yet to be derived. For this purpose, it calls for more seriousness on the part UCBs to improve their overall financial performance by ensuring the participation bank staff at all level.
